Greetings from the WA desert

-Name
-Where you are from
-What vehicle you drive (pictures would be a + )
-What got you into this style
-Why you are here

Hi all! My name is Andy and I am from southeast Washington. I am stupid into cars and the hobby is getting worse and worse by the day :biggthumpup:

I drive a 2003 G35 and a 2004 STi. I want to sell the STi soon and get into a Y34 M45 *drool* . Those M45's are absolutely gorgeous and 1000x better than the new ones IMO. I didn't even know that body style was in America until like last week and now I am hooked. :)

The STi is really fun though. It is putting down 360 AWHP on a 20G and was tuned by P&L in chicago. (I bought it this way, already modded.)

The G is my true baby though as I have done ALL the work on it myself (except for painting the body kit- i let a shop paint it then put it on myself). I bought it stock. Here are some pictures of my rides. Hopefully another Inifiniti will share the garage with my G35 soon and I can explore the VIP style more!

Mods on the G include:

-Tein 350Z S-Tech springs
-SPC front and rear camber kits
-PIAA Super Rozza 20x9 +25 20x10 +25, 15mm czp spacers all around
-Michelin pilot sport ps2 tires
-5zigen gunmetal extended lugs
-Kuruma Z front, Impul sides, Chargespeed rear, black painted front grill
-jdm nissan clear corners
-28% tint (or something like that)
-custom quad projector headlights (that i build myself) with 4x philips 85122CM 4800k bulbs custom ordered from europe (not for sale stateside) .. they are a pure white!

I have a slew of other parts to throw on it waiting in my garage but I am involved in too many hobbies lol

The goal for the G was to make the car more "clean" than it came from the factory. I get alot of compliments from non-car people that think it is a new model year car. They look at me weird when I tell them it is a 2003 haha.

Nice stable. One thing to remember you will never have the fun you had in the STi with a Y34. If it were me I'd ditch the G first.
I sold my '06 STi and definitely miss the daily fun.

Thanks for the input kingpin, ima check that thread out now.

schnitz- believe me, i hear ya.. the STi was my first turbo car and i will miss it... however i have literally put blood and sweat into the G and the lines on it are just timeless. Also, included in those "parts i have sitting around for it" is a twin turbo kit waiting to go on :)

it hasn't gone on yet because I am slowly gaining all the knowledge i need to install it myself. i like doing everything myself, i learn alot and value the outcome alot more.
